I saw this video linked from this Cracked article about lame “progressive rock,†and I just had to share it. The article is funny as heck, even though I love Rush, who are considered a progrock band.

... pop. The Luxury have had some big gigs too, and they have a strong grasp on the poppy-rock song recipe. Even new Thick as Thieves sounds more accessible than when they previously seemed too prog-rock for my tastes. Gene Dante knows great glam-rock and has got the pipes to deliver.
